"Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Tex.) and Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-Va.) are drafting a bill they intend to introduce next week that would establish “a national commission on security and technology challenges in the digital age” composed of “the brightest minds from the technology sector, the legal world, computer science and cryptography, academia, civil liberties and privacy advocates, law enforcement and intelligence.”"

"House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul, R-Texas, and Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., a former tech entrepreneur who serves on the Senate Intelligence Committee, will introduce a bill next week to create a national commission on digital security."

For years, lawmakers have grappled with how to balance individual privacy protections and law enforcement’s need for access to encrypted communications. They haven’t gotten very far. That could change, thanks to a bipartisan partnership forged between House Homeland Security Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Texas) and Senate Intelligence Committee member Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.).

"House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul, R-Texas, and Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., who serves on the Intelligence Committee, are set to brief reporters this week on a bill that would create a national commission on security and technology to come up with creative ways to solve the problem."

"Warner was at CES to speak on a panel about global innovation and the tech economy, and to talk at a reception about one of his big areas of interest of the last year: Bringing more stability to the growing number of workers in the "on-demand" economy, like Uber and Lyft drivers or Handy home cleaners."

Senator Warner kicked-off several Virginia events and town hall meetings on Monday, with public events and constituent meetings in Virginia Beach, Norfolk and Newport News.
